Utilities for setting the maximum height of an element
<div class="h-24 ...">
<div class="h-48 max-h-full ...">
.max-h-full
</div>
</div>
To control the max-height of an element at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}:
prefix to any existing max-height utility.
<div class="h-48 max-h-full md:max-h-screen ...">
<span>Target</span>
</div>
For more information about Tailwind's responsive design features, check out the Responsive Design documentation.
Customize Tailwind's default max-height scale in the theme.maxHeight
section of your tailwind.config.js
file.
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
theme: {
maxHeight: {
+ '0': '0',
+ '1/4': '25%',
+ '1/2': '50%',
+ '3/4': '75%',
+ 'full': '100%',
}
}
}
Learn more about customizing the default theme in the theme customization documentation.
By default, only responsive variants are generated for max-height utilities.
You can control which variants are generated for the max-height utilities by modifying the maxHeight
property in the variants
section of your tailwind.config.js
file.
For example, this config will also generate hover and focus variants:
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
variants: {
extend: {
// ...
+ maxHeight: ['hover', 'focus'],
}
}
}
If you don't plan to use the max-height utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the maxHeight
property to false
in the corePlugins
section of your config file:
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
corePlugins: {
// ...
+ maxHeight: false,
}
}
